ATOMIZERI SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent-No. 281,942, dated July 24, 1883.

AppiicationmdJuneao,1882. (Model.)

To all whom t may concern.-

Be it known that l, BENJAMIN F. SUTTON, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvenients in Atomizers, for converting liquids into vapor or spray, which improvements are fully set forth in the following specification and accompanying drawing.

My invention is animprovement on the bottle-pump or Siphon-bottle patented by George Asnius, June 11, A. D. 1867 .Y No. 65,527, whereby the said bottle-pump is changed into an apparatus for converting liquid into vap or or spray.

In the drawing annexed hereto is shown my atoinizer, constructed with the usual rubber air-bulb, D, having Valves at G G. The air passes through the pipe D and cap F into the bottle at B, thus forcing the liquid II through the tube C.

The principal feature of my improvement consists in making one or more openings, A, in the liquid-tube O, to allow the compressed air or gas to mingle with the liquid during its course through the liquid-tube C, thus forming a combined liquid and air exit through one pipe, the supply of compressed air admitted to the tube C at the orifice A being regulated,

by means of the adjustable valve E. When the orifice A is entirely closed by the valve E, the atomizer becomes a bottle-pump, similar to that patented by the said George Asmus.

It is obvious that the iineness of the spray created when the orifice A is open can also be regulated by applying any of the well-known valve attachments at I to the suction end of the tube C, thus enlarging or decreasing this opening to allow a proper proportion of liquid to enter the tube.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure Letters Patent for- l. The combined liquid and air tube C when one or more openings are made in said tube 'above the surface of the liquid to allow coinpressed air or gas to mingle with the liquid during its exit, substantially as described, and for the purpose set forth.

2. The combination of the tube C, orifices A, and valves E and I, as described, and for the purpose set forth.
